I beg your pardon, I did respond and was promptly chastised for doing so. Inserted is my last correspondence offering whatever help you may want to fix the problem. The user forums are full of messages relating to this problem if you care to take a look. I just happened to be the only one who would "dare" to file a bug. Who would dare find a bug ?
I of source have no control of when you do or do not call a bug a bug. All I can do is report what happened.

I did not mean to sound negative. If there is anything I can do to help fix this problem, please let me know and I will be glad to help out.
